12th Grade Community Service Prompt Example Essays
  • Poor:
    The more expereince a person has to go into a specific field the better off they will be in their field. You can't have to much experience. In performing national or community service I think it's a good idea for 18 year olds to have to complete this service before they pursue college or a paying job. Furthermore the service will make the 18 year old more rounded as an indivdual therefore allowing a better chance of success. In conclusion, national or community service doesn't hinder the average 18 year old. In fact it's a elevator to success in their lives.

  • Fair:

In the issue of national or community service the 18 year old will be better able to perform their job or studies. Furthermore the service will make the 18 year old more rounded as an individual therefore allowing a better chance of success. To begin, national or community service teaches 18 year olds things that their school might not have gone over because in school they go over certain things that have to be completed in a certain time. These special services allow brief examples that might happen in the real world which prepare these 18 year olds for that job or college. In anything a person does the more experience they have the more they learn which allows the more things they can do. In a job or college this is the key to success. Next, doing such service will show that the 18 year old is serious about what he or she is trying to get into and that they will be committed to it because they are taking that extra step to be successful and learn more than what they already know. The more rounded an individual is said to be the more successful they are likely to be because they can adapt to survive any type of situation that comes at them. Without seeing what goes on before the 18 year olds pursue college or a paying job is like them walking blind-folded on a thin line and its likely they will fall. In conclusion, national or community services doesn't hinder the average 18 year old. In fact, it's an elevator or key to success in their lives.

    The more rounded an individual is said to be, the more successful they are likely to be because they can adapt to survive any type of situation that comes at them. The importance of being rounded goes into these national or community services because they give a person what they are missing. Without seeing what goes on before the 18 year olds pursue college or a paying job is like them walking blind-folded on a thin line and it's likely they will fall. National or community services will prevent this because it will show and demonstrate what they're trying to get into is all about.

A major thing affecting 18 year olds is they don't know what to expect before they pursue school or a paying job. In this respect it would be best for the 18 year old and the rest of the world for them to take these services because it doesn't just affect one but all because these are the future doctors, lawyers, police officers they are the people we depend on everyday of our lives.
